And now for something completely different...
I'm planning a subwoofer purchase and recently emailed Hsu Research for advice. I included a floorplan of my house. Dr. Hsu suggested placing the subwoofer in a particular corner and told me I would need a much larger unit (VTF-3 in extended mode compared to VTF-2) if I put it where I had planned, away from major room boundaries. (My placement options are quite limited due to room characteristics and difficulty routing wires.)
I'm concerned because the corner Dr. Hsu suggested is right next to the area where two Greyhounds have their beds. One of the dog's ears could be no more than a foot away at times.
Does anyone know if close proximity to the subwoofer will affect the intensity of the sound experienced by the dogs? I know you're not supposed to be able to localize a properly adjusted subwoofer, but does that mean it's no louder right next to it then across the room? And has anyone noticed dogs being upset by a subwoofer?
